A historical novel with a touch of fantasy, set in medieval Portugal. In Portugal, where the Inquisition is the sole holder of truth, Father Manoel Pessoa began to hear strange confessions from the inhabitants of Quintas, a village near Mafra. They speak of inexplicable lights in the sky... Of angels lying with the women of the village... Of virgins giving birth...
But the strangest thing is that some people, including His Majesty King Afonso, saw a burning ship fall from the heavens. From within it emerged creatures, fascinating in their silence and magnificent in their strangeness. Are they angels with the word of God? Or are they demons sent to lead people astray from the true faith? The Inquisition is determined to discover the truth... and it may not be long before the smell of their pyres spreads throughout the kingdom.
